Little Blue Free Library 2.0 has landed in Kingfield and is chock full of books to share. Although its chameleon circuit remains faulty, it manifested a rebel loon cuz Minneapolis. Come visit at 38th and Garfield!

A little free library shaped like a TARDIS is on a post in front of grape vines and little while flowers

A picture of the signs of the little free library. The top sign says little blue free library. The bottom sign says little blue library, free for use of public. All of time and space, everything that ever happened or ever will. Where do you want to start? Pull to open.

Ace was named for the best Doctor Who companion, but she’s grown to be moopsy shaped. Now I need a Star Trek/Doctor Who crossover involving Ace and some moopsies.

Widow’s Bay procrastination fueled cosplay crafting for #cvg2026. No qualms allowed.

A costume piece sits on a table - what sort of looks like a fox skull with giant teeth. Behind it is a tablet showing the actual costume piece in it’s final form (and it looks a lot nicer).

Any CONvergence geeks on the MSP feed? All my ribbons have been delivered or dug out of the basement and are set for the 4 days a year I pretend to be an extrovert!

A young brown cat looks at the camera, next to a row of convention ribbons. The ribbons say (1) Reggie says registration volunteers rock; (2) Fighting Fascism if a full time job with a Minnesota flag star fleet badge; (3) a holographic pink ribbon with a black cat that says fascists get scratches; (4) a white ribbon that says verified cat person with 2 meme cats; a blue ribbon that says visit widows bay, the next Martha’s Vineyard (definitely not cursed); a white ribbon with remove to expose adhesive across it; (4) a black ribbon with a shiny green Oregon trail graphic and the text please be patient with me I’m from the 1900s

I’ve been dreaming of a space themed piercing set up for years, and it’s all coming together with this custom hidden helix piece from BVLA. Working with the folks at Bevel Minneapolis, I may not have lived out my childhood dream of going to space, but I can wear that kid’s wonder and hope every day.

A right ear, backed by bright orange hair. It has a hidden helix piercing with stars and a blue sapphire, as well as a conch piercing with an astronaut earring. There is also a sun tragus piercing, a little Saturn on the lobe, and a rainbow looking opal hanging from the primary lobe piercing

Back home from Star Trek: The Cruise! Our Minnesota themed door and give away items were well received, and facilitated dozens of conversations about the federal invasion. It’s always shocking to step outside my twin cities bubble and face the fact that no one really knows how bad it is here.

A cruise ship door decorated with a Minnesota with Vulcan calligraphy which says “infinite diversity in infinite combinations.”

Decorations on a cruise door that says “Minnesota land of 10,000+ geeks and infinite diversity in infinite combinations.” It is surrounded by historic photos of native Americans, and immigrants and refugees.

A display of stickers and pins that mash up Star Trek and Minnesota. One sticker has a picture of Shaxs from Lower Decks, and says “Fighting Fascism is a Full Time Job” and one has a picture of Captain Sisko that says “Don’t Just Look for Gabriel Bell, Be Gabriel Bell”
